Beginner- Brown Spots

First, my apologies on those who have tried to help me and received no reply. I have never been in a Forum before, much less known how to post pictures but I hope to solve that here. I planted 6 seeds of which 4 have sprouted. 72 degree temp, 50 HR. As the HR was not high enough I placed them under clear plastic cups which now at two weeks, I have removed. They seem to grow at varying rates. One is tall and has little leaf growth. One is short and has substantial growth, the other two are so-so. However the concern I have foe all of them is that they are all developing sone brown areas along the leaves and I don’t know how to curb it. The cups did result in routine water droplets on the leaves which I removed daily. Any ideas?

Too many variables to diagnose without what @BudzMS posted for you to fill out. At minimum what kind of medium are you growing in and what PH is the water going in at?

Some water droplet burns but not a biggie. I would get the temps up for the seedling early veg growth stage. 78-82 with and RH of 60-65% :love_you_gesture:

Looks overly wet on the medium??

Probably from the leaves getting damp or wet, agree with @OGIncognito about seedling temperatures. Those baby roots want to be warm to grow. I would want no higher than 82 degrees, and the temp is much more important than the RH is in my uneducated opinion.

Temp has been a constant 72 degrees. Rh had not been great at 52-58 but under the dopes (clear plastic cups) is was more. The cups consistently had misty condensation on them. Now at 16 days I have removed the cups.
